afternoon all

i tried to get my gigablue gbit usb adapter working on my ultimo. the driver installs fine (sms7500) , the device seems to pick up an ip from dhcp, but keeps telling me local network disconnected (meaning cable unplugged)

has anyone come across this issue before? id imagine the adpater isnt locked to gigablue devices only and should work on anything, but no matter what, it tells me the network is disconnected.

could this be kernel problem with the ultimo?
